I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at LA Fitness (Chicago, IL) in Nov 2013
Interview
Applied online, was called the next day to come in and interview. Interviewed in a pre-sale office, met with the PT Director and then right after briefly with the areas VP. The VP showed up an hour late, and I only talked to him for about 5 min. Questions were all basic and a mix of technical and personality type.
The interviewer was very nice. He asked me questions about my personal training history and why I want to be a trainer. He asked a couple more questions about my background. I felt good after leaving the interview. I received a call to let me know I got the job and the next steps for onboarding.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What led you into this profession as a personal trainer? What's your story?
Great interview process. Fast and efficient. More like a screening and relaying info than an in depth interview. They didn’t really ask me questions about my qualifications or experience. Mostly on explaining the job process.
Everything was rushed. The vp of sales immediately started sexually harassing me. I complained to their headquarters. I never got paid for the time that I worked. I tried to file a claim with the EEOC.
